Something for you to ponder. Give someone power and/or money and they will become who they really are. More to the point. Take away consequences for a persons actions and they will become who they really are. I have seen enough in game, on internet forums, and in real life to know just how true the above things are. Does this mean that everyone who pirates in game waits at the exit of a grocery store to beat up old ladies and take their groceries? Of course not. Yet you can watch news anywhere in the world and see all of the nasty stuff people do to one another daily and how sociopathic behavior is the norm in real life. Is it really a stretch to think more than a few sociopaths in real life play Eve? No, and to deny this is to deny logic, common sense, and what is happening in real life daily. People are nasty creatures. So are you also the type of person who believes that sandbox games like Grand Theft Auto turn people in murderous psychopaths?
Murderous psychopaths turn Grand Theft Auto into sand.

No, I said sociopaths are in real life doing nasty things to other people and sociopaths play eve.
Any chance there are sociopathic carebears acting out their feelings of sympathy and affection?

No, I said sociopaths are in real life doing nasty things to other people and sociopaths play eve. I think you are having some trouble separating fantasy from reality here, mang. Maybe you should lay off the Veld for a few weeks.
What I meant to ask is if there is any chance that Eve plays sociopaths.

I hear for CSM 8 they plan on pre-screening candidates by way of Rorschach tests along with various word association and polygraph tests.
Liability, et al. Nobody wants to repeat the mistakes of CSM7, after all.
Oh snap! They haven't even done anything yet!

No, I said sociopaths are in real life doing nasty things to other people and sociopaths play eve. I'm sorry the mean PVPers PVPed you against your will in a game about non-consentual PVP. LoL. You need to check my battleclinic record before spouting off even more nonsense. Wait, nevermind. Your entertaining.
By your reckoning, a record like that just screams "sociopath!" Look at all those assets you destroyed...

Quoting part of my earlier post in this thread. Olleybear wrote:Does this mean that everyone who pirates in game waits at the exit of a grocery store to beat up old ladies and take their groceries? Of course not.
Does this mean that sociopaths all wait at the exit of a grocery store to beat up old ladies and take their groceries?
Of course not.
Boy we've proven tons here haven't we?

Wait outside grocery store exits to beat up old ladies and steal their dentures.

I build my gank Thrashers and all the fittings from mission poo, a bit of mining, and some researched BPOs. It amuses me to no end. The mission poo and Soundwave's comment how they never wanted you to mine with a gun is worrying lol
It's probably 100% true.
This game was not originally the IP of CCP, for what that's worth.

Whose was it O.o and when did they take it over? An itd be funny if they removed all the drops from missions/rats and just upped the bounties. Miners would be way more important there lol
Also make the meta 1-4 items bpc's craftable via invention as lesser degrees of success than tech ii.
Edit: Let me find that original IP holder.
Second Edit: According to this, Simon & Schuster Inc.
